Grand Slam

Chicago’s top professional athletes and 1,200 philanthropically minded guests gathered at the Hilton Chicago & Towers for the 25th annual ComcastSportsNet Sports Awards honoring current players as well as local legends like Otis Wilson, Bob Love, Ernie Banks and Frank Thomas. Attendees enjoyed a reception, dinner and silent auction, all of which raised more than $900,000 for the March of Dimes. The funds go to aid the March of Dimes research and community programming for prenatal and infant health care. Photography by Bruce Powell, Erica Dietz and Max Biedermann
